Therefore the Home Theater System will act as the control to energize those other devices.With this configuration, when you turn on your Home Theater System (Basic Audio Receiver), your entire system will power on or energize into Standby.Your cable box/set-top box or DVR will always remain on so you won't lose your scheduled DVR programming. You might still need your remote control to turn on some devices as they might power on into a standby mode.$100,000 LIFETIME LIMITED CONNECTED EQUIPMENT PROTECTION POLICYLIFETIME LIMITED PRODUCT WARRANTYPanamax warrants to the purchaser of any standard Panamax surge protector that the surge protector shall be free of defects in design, material, or workmanship, and Panamax will repair or replace any defective unit.WARRANTY LIMITATION FOR INTERNET PURCHASERS:Panamax products purchased through the Internet do not carry a valid Connected Equipment Protection Policy unless purchased from an Authorized Panamax Internet Dealer!
